I do have several good prospects. However, my point today is this: I entered another juried show (Juror, Justin Kimball, <http://www.justinkimballphotography.com/>). There were 280+ entries, 70 chosen, and I had 2 of the 70, both Leica glass, B&W, R2400 prints on Crane Museo Silver Rag, 13x19. At the opening Thursday night, several folks commented on the "look" of the prints: i.e., the "Leica look," as opposed to 90%+ of the rest of the show which was digital. One wanted to know how I "got that look." For me, it's the tops.
